	Running head: PROSOCIAL SKILLS PROGRAMMING IN PRESCHOOL AND KINDERGARTEN (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Although the theory and research related to child development is evolving, behaviorism, maturationism and constructivism have been used to inform early childhood education.
		The first model of child development, behaviorism, was based on John Locke’s philosophic view and the research of Pavlov, Thorndike, B. Skinner, and Watson.
		Maturationism leads to a "hands-off approach to teaching with an emphasis on informality and the use of different play as appropriate teaching techniques.

		And this environment includes curricula, textbooks, didactic props including computer programs and micro worlds, task they are given, and, of course, the teachers." (von Glasersfeld, 1996, pg.
		"Constructivism is fundamentally nonpositivist and as such it stands on completely new ground--often in direct opposition to both behaviorism and maturationism.
		Rather than behaviors or skills as the goal of instruction, concept development and deep understanding are the foci; rathern than stages being the result of maturaion, they are understood as constructions of active learner reorganization." (Twomey Fosnot, 1996, pg.

	Journal of Consciousnes Studies, Volume 6, No.2/3, The View from Within
		Drawing on new evidence from the Dewey archive, this paper traces how John Dewey conceived his Hegelian-inspired theory of mind and how he tested it in the 1930s by collaborating with infant experimentalist Myrtle McGraw in her pioneering studies of the ontogeny of consciousness and judgment.
		Her studies challenged behaviourism and maturationism, which advanced environmental and genetic theories of human development, by showing that infants possess consciousness and the judgment needed to guide their own development.
		I contend that, while Dewey's theory of mind and McGraw's discoveries remain controversial and poorly understood, they are not merely of historical interest but approach the threshold of an integrated neurobiological and neurobehavioural understanding of consciousness.
